Answer 2

Measure of the other diagonal is 6.8 inches

Explanation:

Given: The area of a kite is 51.68 square inches. One diagonal measures 15.2 inches.

To find: measure of the other diagonal

Solution:

Let p, q denote measures of two diagonals.

`p=15.2\,\,inches`

Area of the kite = 51.68 square inches

`(pq)/(2)=51.68\\(1)/(2)(15.2)q=51.68\\7.6q=51.68\\q=(51.68)/(7.6)=6.8\,\,inches`

Measure of the other diagonal is 6.8 inches
